Characters:
Eragon- Luke Skywalker
Murtagh- Leia
Oromis- Yoda
Brom- Obi- Wan Kenobi
King Galbatorix- Palpatine
Morzan- Darth Vader
Saphira- Lightsaber/ Millennium Falcon
Arya- Arwen from LOTR (forbidden love, apotheosis of perfect, beautiful princess)

The storylines have incredible resemblances. A boy grown apart from the rest of the world (or universe) without parents is overlooked by someone former important (Brom or Obi- Wan) until their relatives are killed. Eragon and Luke gets training during their journey, and gets steadily stronger. They discover some long- lost relative, (Leia or Murtagh) and participate in the overthrowing of the government. They are also reestablishing the time of the Riders/ Jedi.

Either Paolini did this accidently or used this as a setup.
What do you think?

Whenever I start typing on the computer, I tend to freeze up and my mind goes blank...but if it's such a hassle to write with pen and paper. On a computer, it's much easier to correct mistakes and fix spelling errors. In the end, the story will be typed but I don't know whether to start stories with pen and paper or straight on the computer. Which method do you all prefer?

I was on amazon and looking for a book about dragons for my son and saw a book called Kyle Oaks and the author is 10 years old!! I did not know that you can be that young to write a book. I googled the book to see if it was for real and it looks like it is world wide. I ended up buying the book since my son likes books about kings and dragons and that Eragon book is too thick for him to read...has anyone else heard of this book or author? I am glad I found it...

I'm writing an essay for school on C.S.Lewis' life, and I've finished it, but I'm stumped about the debate between Lewis and Tolkien. (And I HAVE looked in the library plus online, too, Lol)

Anyways...C.S. Lewis was the famous Oxford professor who wrote the Chronicles of Narnia & the Space Trilogy series. Tolkien was the author of the Lord of the Rings. My friend said that there was a debate between those two and that Lewis wrote his series to counteract Tolkien or something like that. I dug up a few things in research about their friendship, and that they were very good members of the Inkling club but I found nothing about debates.

If you have a link or book to refer to, I'd appreciate it!

Some people (falsely) claim that Harry Potter is satanic even when they haven't read it. Isn't the theme behind Harry Potter the triumph of good against evil and the importance of love?And turns out christians oppose it more than anyone. I have been a Harry Potter fan for many years and haven't found anything wrong with it. Some countries even ban the series!!!It's amazing how people find fault with Harry Potter and yet ignore books like Lord of the rings, Chronicles of Narnia, etc.
